Twenty-six smoking toilets, and three more on fire, put a Japanese toilet maker in the hot seat on Monday.

Toto Ltd., known for its high-tech toilets with bidets that have blow-drying, air purification and seat-warming functions, apologized to consumers and offered free checks and repairs after some of its toilets with bidets and heated seats sent up smoke and three caught fire.

“We apologize deeply for the trouble we have caused to our customers,” the company said in a statement.

Toto said no people were injured as a result of the problems and damage was limited to a small part of the toilet tank.

This explains those tales of spontaneous human combustion.



  1. The Mad Toilet says:

    I’m tired of you assholes giving me nothing but shit.
    So take that!

  2. Gary Marks says:

    They should rename this the Dirty Harry toilet. Before taking a dump, “you’ve got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?”

  3. Plasma says:

    Being the avid consumer of jalapenos, I was always worried about what was going to come out… now, I have to worry about even sitting down… hot seat for a hot shit!

  4. Ron Larson says:

    Did they have Sony batteries?

  5. TJGeezer says:

    What a rude glitch. How you supposed to read a newspaper when your throne catches on fire?

  6. Gary Marks says:

    TJGeezer, I think these toilets are part of the new Evelyn Wood speed reading program, really motivating you to hurry up and read that freakin’ newspaper.

    It’s call Evelyn Wood Xtreme Reading 😉
